That hammered itself straight into my head and heart..
A very forceful poem, which you’ve managed to put forth so sweetly and delicately…
The last 3 lines bore a hole somewhere deep inside me, and I honestly choked!!!
Brilliant!

I love your pic on this blog. I have a similar photo when I went to India to work with the children in the orphanages. At first I thought you were getting at was that these kids didn’t have homes or families because they were orphans. But I saw there was more to it..”But what flows in me ticks like a bomb in you..” Great job.

There is a sadness that now runs through me. I love children. They carry the weight of time in their blood but yet thier faces would should lives or forever. HIV is still a very big epidemic. I have read there is a gel that has been recently created and tsted that prevents the transmission of HIV. It has been given to women who have been sexually assualted and those as a precautionary. One small step to keep children from being born with time ticking blood. Great piece hun!!
